conradfr··on I'll be stepping back from leading product for X
Not on hand but you can observe it along the way, and sometimes they do a post or video to justify themselves, on X or BS.

People notice because some loud proponents of https://helloquittex.com/ came back, sometimes quietly.

Personally I think X & BS impact is over exaggerated anyway.

conradfr··on I'll be stepping back from leading product for X
In France the left is slowly coming back to X ahead of the presidential election because they noticed they speak in a void (journalists don't care about Bluesky) and also they all blocked each other in the purity battle.

They still hate Musk though.

Personally I think they all suck for different reasons.

conradfr··on Show HN: PON-BEAM re-architecture of the Erlang VM
Interesting.

Do you think the #ifdef PON_BEAM approach would make following OTP updates easy?

I guess being tied to Linux would prevent any chance of getting into the official repo.

conradfr··on Google has abandoned Google News?
The sun will be magnificent before dying.
conradfr··on Google has abandoned Google News?
Nothing is worst because of the www stack, which is better than it has ever been.

The world consume things through mobile apps nowadays.

conradfr··on UEFA and its national associations will not participate in FIFA competitions
While the football business is horrible it's nice that this may fail like the Super League.

Now if only that could put a dent in Infantino reelection...

conradfr··on UEFA and its national associations will not participate in FIFA competitions
Like for live music tickets prices it's hard to collectively do the right thing and boycott. There's just too many people.

But there's always a breaking point... hopefully.

conradfr··on About the security content of macOS Tahoe 26.6
It's Ted Danson.
conradfr··on Netflix employee fired for sharing personal details in retreat trust exercise
Funnily enough, that reminds of one scene in the Comedy Central TV show "Corporate", episode S01E05 titled... "Corporate retreat"[0].

I didn't know those trust/sharing exercises were real.

conradfr··on Turn And Face The Strange
Where is that option?
conradfr··on Turn And Face The Strange
> because your laptop stops running when you close the lid.

There's a world outside Apple.

conradfr··on Please stop the AI confidence theater
The good thing is that it's steadily ruining shorts.
conradfr··on Bobby Prince, composer for Doom, Wolfenstein 3D, and Duke Nukem 3D, has died
It sounded great on my Gravis Ultrasound with custom midi samples.

(it was also a pain when the Sound Blaster compatibility was needed, dma 1 irq 5).

conradfr··on Is Meta destroying its engineering organization?
It's only until Cold Harbor is completed.
conradfr··on Hetzner Price Adjustment
I see that (new) EX44 servers are now 50% more expensive than before, ouch. Although there's none available anyway.
conradfr··on Hetzner increased dedicated server prices 3-4x
Maybe AI could now optimize all the server software made when RAM was cheap.
conradfr··on UK set to announce social media ban for under-16s
Not sure if true (as it was on X) but I read that Bluesky would be exempt?
conradfr··on Phoenix LiveView 1.2
To be honest that's copied from the JS frameworks. I tend to agree with you but sometimes scoped CSS is nice to have.
conradfr··on Phoenix LiveView 1.2
Doesn't seem to be mentioned in the page but if you're talking about request caching there's libraries like PlugHTTPCache or RequestCache.

Otherwise I usually use Nebulex (annotations are nice for Ecto queries) with ETS as it's faster than with Redis (if you don't care about losing the cache on deployment).

conradfr··on Phoenix LiveView 1.2 Released
What about https://www.erlang.org/doc/apps/erts/beamasm.html
conradfr··on Ask HN: Why hasn't there been a real competitor to Ticketmaster yet?
It's not clear they will be. Or maybe not with the fans that wanted to see their teams.

conradfr··on Siri AI
I press a switch on the wall.
conradfr··on I design with Claude more than Figma now
> Claude gave me free, unlimited iteration, unbothered when I changed my mind for the 50th time or asked for a small tweak

Do you not pay for Claude?

conradfr··on Elixir v1.20: Now a gradually typed language
For me it's more the productivity and DX that suffer from lack of function arguments types.
conradfr··on YouTube to automatically label AI-generated videos
This reminds me of this recent video by JHS pedals about a dire AI video. https://www.youtube.com/live/aQSOWFS6lzE
conradfr··on Stack Overflow’s forum is dead but the company’s still kicking
Call me crazy but sometimes I still find a better solution on StackOverflow than what Claude Code insists to do.

I'm not sure we're better off without SO in the long run.

conradfr··on Show HN: Audiomass – a free, open-source multitrack audio editor for the web
Oh ok, I thought it was more in the spirit of "doing a track with my friends".
conradfr··on Show HN: Audiomass – a free, open-source multitrack audio editor for the web
Ah yes I miss the preview + space to play.
conradfr··on Show HN: Audiomass – a free, open-source multitrack audio editor for the web
Cool work, the weird part is effects being item based instead of track based and that selecting an effect stops the playing and you apply it blind.

If that's just "turn-based collaboration" use the same DAW and a shared Drive/Dropbox/Whatever.
